Ten Hek MSM Super mast climbers, supplied by Al Laith Scaffolding to main contractor Dhabi Contracting, are being used to install the heavy granite panels on the sheer walls of the tower. The glass panel sections are being installed from inside the building. The MSM units comprise six single–mast platforms at heights of up to 185 m and two twin–mast units up to 80 m. Anchoring is at 8 m centers.
